Handling pressure, upgrading business and inspiring people are important steps for a startup company, said Liu Qing, president of taxi-hailing company Didi Kuaidi Dache.

"In the first month that I joined Didi Dache last year, it was very stressful because I only worked for Goldman Sachs Group Inc previously and my new company had spent a lot of money to compete with Kuaidi Dache," said Liu.

Liu said she faced tremendous pressure because most of her workmates in the new company termed her a "goddess".

She said upgrading business is very important in the mobile Internet sector.

Liu said her company is doing a business no player did before, so she has to inspire her workmates, telling them the company's mission and ways to deal with problems.
